Books and educational materials needed
Requested by
Vision Inspired People Zimbabwe (VIPZ)Who are you trying to help? What issue are you trying to address?
Vision Inspired People Zimbabwe is in need of books or educational materials to support disadvantaged children’s education in Zimbabwe and South Africa.
In partnership with a South African Organisation Umthombo Wethemba, we provide shelter and education to children who wander the streets in Tembisa and Alexandra area where are considered one of the poorest in South Africa. Children who entered the Umthombo Wethemba shelter are mostly abandoned by family.
During the class, children learn reading, and vocational skills such as tailoring and baking. They also attend basic hygiene sessions. The children are divided into three groups: ages 2-7, ages 8-13 and 13-18.
